Housing Price Wars: Will an Energy Efficient Home Win?
Manage episode 291592709 series 2452325
Housing prices in Canada are heating up again, and so are carbon taxes. In a price war, home energy efficiency may not be top-of-mind for buyers, but with rising carbon taxes maybe it should be.
This week Jackie and Peter talk energy efficiency, including: How important is energy efficiency for achieving a low carbon future? What are the government incentives for energy efficiency? Will higher carbon taxes reduce the historic barriers for investing in energy efficiency? What is a heat pump? Are new business opportunities emerging for deploying efficiency?
See Peter’s recent commentary “Location, Location, Inefficiency.”
